Adaptable performance sole apparatus

ABSTRACT

This embodiment is named THE ADAPTABLE PERFORMANCE SOLE APPARATUS. Its purpose is to be adapted to the choice of footwear/bare feet thus enhancing the shock action and comfort regardless of the footwear it&#39;s being attached to. This adaptable performance sole apparatus gets its attach ability from straps and/or attaching mechanisms and can be attached to shoes, sneakers as well as bare feet. The shock producing element shown in FIG.  5   c  utilizes two shapes to work as one, the first is cylinders so that when down pressure is applied they expand horizontally, the second shape is like pillars that are cut (has a space in the middle) and each are placed between the cylinders therefore complimenting each other so that when the down pressure is being applied to the embodiment, the cylinders sides expand horizontally and at the same time the cut pillars are forced to touch, thus restricting the cylinders from expanding to the point of breaking which makes this embodiment have a continues contracting and expanding feature attributing to the adaptable performance sole apparatus&#39;s shock action.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Ever since the 1980's, 90's and present day Footwear Companies have strived to produce shoes and sneakers suitable to accommodate our daily activities such as sports, running, jogging and walking. This prior art has evolved our footwear from uncomfortable sneakers/shoes to better performing footwear. Nevertheless, the problem that hasn't been solved is when an individual with modern-day sneakers/shoes on has to be on his/her feet (engaging in sports or walking back and forth; standing) all day. In the beginning of the day their's no pain but by the end of the day the individual can't wait to take off his/her sneakers/shoes due to pain in their feet, knees or lower back.

Footwear Companies have tried to solve this dilemma and have come a long way however, this new foot-wear accessory is an Adaptable Performance Sole Apparatus and has more of the shock-like tension that's needed for hardcore athletes as well as doctors, average everyday workers and kids of all ages.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The ADAPTABLE PERFORMANCE SOLE APPARATUS is a foot-wear accessory that has a shock-like therapeutic feel to it in the sense that when an individual reaches a point in his/her daily activities where pain in their feet, legs or lower back is an issue this invention can be his/her answer to a painless day when worn. Besides the therapeutic ingenuity of the shock-like reaction that this invention has its ability to be attached to a pair of sneakers/shoes/bare feet is the key. All footwear don't have the same properties and characteristics therefore this claimed invention evens out the plainfield for shoes and sneakers making it a reliable and constant source of an enhanced shock-like comfort no matter which shoes/sneakers you wear with them attached even if they are worn with bare feet. The object of this invention consists of but not limited by plastic composites, rubber materials; velcro fabric and/or attaching mechanisms are used for the invention to have the ability to be attached. The inner shock producing element shown in FIG. 5C of the preferred embodiment is versatile in the sense that it can be engineered in various ways that would allow it to perform with a shock-like reaction.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The preferred embodiments function is that it can be attached to shoes/sneakers/bare feet enhancing the shock-like ability to the footwear being worn. The improvement of this art regarding soles in shoes/sneakers is that this invention has the ability to adapt to the user and the footwear he/she picks to wear. The process of manufacture is a combination of plastic composites and rubber materials; velcro and/or attaching mechanisms for attach ability. The inner shock producing element shown in FIG. 5C of the preferred embodiment is made from composite material which is durable but flexible and has memory so that when down pressure is applied it flexes and when pressure is released it returns to it original shape, it's versatile in the sense that it can be engineered in various ways that would allow it to perform with a shock-like reaction. 

1. an adaptable performance sole apparatus that is attachable to shoes/sneakers/bare feet by means of straps/attaching mechanism; its purpose is to add more of a shock reaction to the choice of shoes/sneakers/bare feet.
 2. an adaptable performance sole apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the apparatus has an outer housing element.
 3. an adaptable performance sole apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the apparatus has an inner shock producing element which is attached inside the outer housing element.
 4. an adaptable performance sole apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the inner shock producing element which consists of plastic/rubber materials (composite material).
 5. an adaptable performance sole apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the apparatus has straps/attaching mechanisms, attached to it.
 6. the inner shock producing element according to claim 4, having multiple cylinder shapes horizontally.
 7. the inner shock producing element according to claim 4, having a pillar in between each cylinder; the pillars have a space in the middle which make it seem like two pieces and has a space in between the pillar and the cylinders.
 8. the inner shock producing element which consists of plastic/rubber materials (composite material); features multiple cylinder shapes horizontally and a pillar in between each cylinder, the pillars have a space in the middle which make it seem like two pieces and has a space in between the pillar and the cylinders; this embodiment is integrated in a sneaker as one without straps becoming its sole.
